In a world where the unlimited availability of music has all but destroyed the poetry of the encounter, Accentus firmly believes that there is still an inherent need for discovery, poetry, and personal encounter – a need that cannot simply be determined by algorithms and playlists. Passionate about sound, images, and music, Accentus Music is synonymous with the discovery of the unique musical experience.
